After a couple of years of laying glass, I've settled in on a very effective method of performing a surface lamination over core cell foam. Here are the simple steps that I use:

1. build mold2. fasten foam to mold3. skim coat the surface of the foam w0 micro and epoxy4. let cure to the touch and rough sand any slight imperfections5. roll out a good wet coat of epoxy using 3/8 Knapp half roller6. roll out glass7. roll top coat of epoxy and let soak down into the epoxy that is soaking upwards9. roll on the peel ply10. use bondo spreaders to smooth out excess resin in the direction of lamination.......do 3 to 4 ft sections at a time moving in one continuous direction.
